AdBlue® is an odourless urea solution used in diesel models with SCR technology. It reduces harmful nitrogen oxides in diesel vehicle emissions. What do you have to do? When the display lights up or after several thousand kilometres, you can simply top up with AdBlue® and enjoy the benefits.
Depending on driving style and model, your Volkswagen uses an average of 1.5–2.8 l AdBlue® per 1,000 km. An indicator light will indicate when you have to refill – 2,400 km and 1,000 km beforehand.
Is a warning or indicator lamp illuminated in the vehicle display and you don’t have your printed owner’s manual to hand? Please take a look online in the Digital Manual or visit our Warning and indicator lamps page.
Your benefits
Economical:
A passenger vehicle requires 1.5–2.8 l AdBlue® per 1,000 km. Depending on the model, the tank holds between 11 and 19 l.
Easy to refill:
Either ask your Volkswagen Retailer or use the refill container.
Controllable consumption:
AdBlue® consumption depends largely on your driving style. Those who drive particularly fast will have to refill more often.
Prepared for almost any temperature:
An automatic heating system ensures that AdBlue® is at the required operating temperature. Important: Do not put anti-freeze or any other fluids in the AdBlue® tank.
